SaltyWaters posted: I don't want to connect my platforms to Myfxbook because how do I know if there isn't a script that will read all my MT4 folders and copy my code.

Thanks for the details, it makes more sense now.

About connecting to myfxbook: they recently added a new way of publishing your account, where you only need to give them the investor password. No more running anything on your computer! I'm using that for all my accounts, and even though it's in Beta, and sometimes the accounts do not update as expected (every 5 minutes), I really like it since I don't have to maintain my MT4 for myfxbook EA, and use VPS resources for it.

I would like to know how did you see that trades went against him by 500 pips. Did you find him on InstaForex PAMM, where the equity is correctly calculated, not like on myfxbook? Or simply looked at the trades that took a long time, and checked the charts?

About leverage: InstaForex lots mean 10 times less than on 'normal' brokers. So the first trade, with 1.00 lots on EURUSD, means 1 minilot, not 1 full lot. Even 1 minilot is too much for that account, but only the first trade was like that, and I assumed it was a mistake when setting up the EA or entering the trade manually. Since that first trade, I could only spot 3 more trades with 1 minilot, all in the first two weeks of trading. Everything since then was done with 1 or 2 nanolots...

At this point I'm just collecting pointers to supposedly good systems. I'm going to watch them for a while, and if the performance holds, analyze them in more detail. But even at this early stage I appreciate any insight other people, like you, can offer on the systems discussed here.

I noticed another account.Here the screenshort. I noticed some trades were on for days and were closed at small profit or loss. so, i went to gbp/usd chart and checked on time of open and close and what price did in between. price went on few trades pretty far against the trade and more was added. then trades were closed for less loss. I have been trading long enough to look for such things. It means no predetermined stop.last trade had huge leverage. 55 pips 65% + , but it could go another way...trade that was on 13 days went against position about 500 pips.

I think due diligence here is important for all involved. Trader should learn as well from others mistakes.I have my own flaws but I do cut my losses quickly. I am working on trade quality and hit rate and obviously patience to wait for those.

Okay, let me explain about my trading. Both of you are right. My system need 30.000 pips to work, I use 8 EA's so I need much balance. If Chikot see my trades against me 500 pips, he was wrong!! Absolutely my trades againts me more than 2000 pips.You can see, on middle August my system bring me down for about 10%.

Starting with $20,000 and compounding at 12% per month after 5 years (60 months) one will end up with $17.95 million.And if one takes 10% of the profits every month will end up with round about $10 million

This is no guarantee of course and the settings can be adjusted to be safer or riskier according to ones taste. The size of the lots increases gradually with the Balance

I started with 3 accounts (Real Accounts) with a total of $8500 in March 2011 and my 3 accounts are now at $22500
